Senior Manager, Financial Risk Management

Role Overview

• Lead risk and controls support across multiple finance-critical business domains, with a focus on building scalable foundations in a rapidly developing environment.
• Assess risks across payments, equity, procurement flows, strategic investments, people processes and related systems.
• Identify where the control environment is weakest or most exposed, and prioritize the highest-risk areas for remediation, control design, governance, or monitoring support.
• Partner with operational, business, finance, legal, people, procurement, corporate development, and technical teams to design controls that are effective in practice and integrated into day-to-day workflows.
• Translate risks into clear operational requirements, including ownership models, approval points, control objectives, monitoring expectations, reconciliations, evidence needs, system dependencies, and escalation paths.
• Drive cross-functional remediation efforts where processes are unclear, fragmented, overly manual, inconsistently documented, or dependent on immature systems/data.
• Help teams balance speed and control by implementing fit-for-purpose guardrails that support execution, preserve accountability, and avoid unnecessary friction.
• Support new or changing processes, systems, deals, vendors, payment flows, and operating models by ensuring risk, control, governance, and evidence considerations are addressed upfront.
• Contribute to broader ICFR/SOX and operational risk readiness efforts by strengthening control design, documentation, testing readiness, issue management, and leadership visibility across high-impact processes.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in financial risk management, operational risk, internal controls, SOX/ICFR, internal audit, controllership, finance transformation, or related risk/control roles.
• Experience working with at least some domains such as payments, procurement, strategic investments, M&A integration, HR/people processes, financial close, controllership, third-party risk, or other operational business processes.
• Strong judgment on how to design the right level of control in a fast-scaling company, including where lightweight guardrails are sufficient, where formal ICFR/SOX controls are required, and where automation or monitoring is the better answer.
• Experience working in environments with evolving systems, incomplete process structure, unclear ownership, or fragmented data — and bringing order without over-engineering.
• Demonstrated ability to partner effectively with operational, finance, legal, people, procurement, corporate development, and technical teams, including stakeholders who may initially view controls as slowing them down.
• Strong ability to translate broad risks into actionable controls, RCMs, narratives, operating requirements, quality gates, KRIs, dashboards, and remediation plans.
• Deep familiarity with core controls concepts, including preventive vs. detective controls, manual vs. automated controls, IT-dependent controls, monitoring mechanisms, evidence expectations, testing readiness, and deficiency evaluation.
• Strong communication, organization, and stakeholder management skills.
• ERP, GRC, procurement, payments, HRIS, investment, M&A integration, workflow, or data platform experience is a plus.
